"Artificial intelligence (AI) prophets and newsmongers are forecasting the end
of the generative AI hype, with talk of an impending catastrophic “model
collapse”.

But how realistic are these predictions? And what is model collapse anyway?

Discussed in 2023, but popularised more recently, “model collapse” refers to a
hypothetical scenario where future AI systems get progressively dumber due to
the increase of AI-generated data on the internet."
